Hey Fam! I appreciate you stopping by more than you can know. I have so much more planned for Motion 5 tutorials. Not to mention lots of content around Final Cut Pro! So if that interests you, consider subscribing! I hope you have the most blessed day ever.
I know how much time it takes to make content like this, and I am so appreciative that you spent the time to do it. This has helped so much. Thanks for all of your tutorials. I have learned so much.
The icon you were clicking at 12:16 is for *changing the layer group from 2D layers* (what's on top of what is decided by layer order) *to 3D layers* (what's on top of what is decided by Z value).
My god, you have the best Motion tutorials on the internet, period. Thank you so much for creating them. Even though I have Adobe After Effects, I would much rather use Motion since I'm a FCPX user and Motion is a lot more optimized for macOS. Before you came around there were barely any recent, good tutorials for it. PLEASE continue making Motion tutorials!
Great tutorial, starts slow showing how to use the interface, then gets into keyframe, motion tracking, and rigging. Thank-you for making this, I learned a lot!
Excellent VIdeo Mr. Bro. 🙂I have been complaining about you editing out the natural pauses in your videos and am now absolutely delited to see this one where your speach is 100% natural. Love it! I give credit where it´s due!
Doooooooooooood, this is so helpful. I've tried to use Motion so many times over the years and always found myself bogged down by all the options. This helped me get things sorted in my head a lot better. I'm using motion to tweak existing titles to create new ones that use specific client colors and fonts. This has been hugely helpful. Thx BRO!
DOPE! Stoked for you! I have a massive playlist of Motion videos to get you going if you are interested! ua-cam.com/play/PL02OH3lOOLeKQF7yoEcQ18V8qr-7UtOSI.html
The video is super helpful. Had me following alone perfectly fine, then we got to the star-making &, seriously, your 'Oh my goodness, don't look at that" lol earned your my sub.
Awesome! Hopefully I can share everything you need to know. It's definitely a big switch! I definitely recommend this new tutorial I just dropped about "Parameter Behaviors" it will help immensely with animations in Motion. Here's a link if you're interested! ua-cam.com/video/IMWCtBVs7E4/v-deo.html
Excellent approach: competence with modesty ("I don't know why I am teaching this") sooo unusual in such spheres. But that masks your overall first-rate intro to Motion. Thanks, nicely done!
Hi Dylan - great tutorial on Motion. I liked the fact that you didn't edit out the parts of Motion that you weren't sure about. Because there are parts of a software package that some times we're just not sure, but we can make it do what we need it to do. I'll be sure to watch some of your other videos. All the very best, Cheers Rick
Great tutorial - Motion is beginning to make some sense now! 😀 Would love to see a tutorial on how to achieve the opening text animation from Amazon Prime’s ‘Upload’ series!
Just downloaded Motion yesterday for a personal project I have. Tried the Apple manual in Books... then though 'screw that... I need a YT tutorial to get me started!'... This video was just what I needed... Thank you for making this. I've subscribed, and will be checking out your other Motion tutorials :) :)
Thanks Bro! I've always been sort of intimidated by Motion but you just made it look so doable, really appreciate this tutorial and what you're doing. And the honesty when you said you dont know what that icon beside the lock button in the layers panel does is just rare... Anyway, i found that if you click on it with the HUD and with the Inspector panel in Group, it changes from Fixed Resolution to Flatten and the type changed from 2D to 3D. i think it might have something to do with 3D-ing stuff...
Hey thanks for the insight! I actually went on to research it later and discovered that you are exactly right. I use it all the time now. It would have been a great tidbit of info for people, but definitely not the end of the world. Hopefully they will see your comment and gain the knowledge! Thanks for watching!
Hey Rick, I completely agree! I created this video when I was just starting out on UA-cam and I hadn’t tuned in to the fact that the videos needed more structure than what I was doing. Since then I’ve done a couple more beginners guides that follow a more direct path! This one in particular is one that I really like. ua-cam.com/video/bsiXjs9nVds/v-deo.html

Dylan 🤗!! Do you not offer an exhaustive Apple Motion 5 course that actually teaches all of its power !?? I wanna master it so I canf fully get creative and crazy with it!!
Crazy right?! I personally love making timelapses in Motion for a few reasons, mostly just so it doesn't clutter up my Final Cut library with 100's of photos. Thanks for watching!
Import as Image Sequence is more for use with 3D animated content. When you export from say Blender you would export as an image sequence of your timeline. This would spit out all the frames as images into a specified folder. The reason is due to computers crashing mid-render. Rendering 3D can take hours, days, or even longer. With an image sequence you could start the render off where the computer crashed with minimal loss of time. There's nothing like rendering to a video format only to get to the last second and the computer crashed corrupting the video file...ugh
Haha I wanted to get into all those things in this video! But they’re all so involved, and probably each require there own video. But it’s definitely all planned! Thanks for your support as always my friend!
Hi mate, I wonder if you can help as I think I may have found a strange bug in the latest version of FCB 10. I 6 After completing a project and exporting it out to my document as a movie usually 4K for Apple devices everything works fine up to this point. But if I decide Im not happy with it and go back to the project to make alterations and then export it out again the changes I made are unchanged and the only way I can fix it is to duplicate the project and delete the original and then export it again and then the changes have been made.. I know it sounds strange and any help would be appreciated. Thanks
@@2Am1r we are good! Thanks for asking. There were about 3,000 homes that were burnt down, which is insane. But our home wasn’t one of those. People really stepped up to help one another though through it all. The cause of fires is still under investigation but everyones pretty certain it was an arsonist that started it all. Appreciate you taking the time to check!
Hey, wonder if you can help me? when I play the animation it goes way too fast and its hard to see what it will look like in real time. I think the playback speed is set way too high but i've tried/googled everything I can. Any ideas? thanks in advanced.
Very helpful,thank you so much)I was wondering when you save text with background to Final Cut Pro ,it has those Published Parameters I can not figure out how to move text and background together by click and move,I can only move them when I change px in published parameters, it really bother me when I do a lot of editing haha
Thanks for watching! -- I'll do my best to explain a potential solution over a comment. But I am definitely going to be doing a future tutorial on this very thing. Unfortunately this won't be as detailed as I would want it to be! So when you're in Motion, select your background. Go over to the properties on the left side. In the position properties, right next to where you can add a keyframe, you should see a small down arrow (when you mouse over it). Click that and go down to "Add Parameter Behavior" then select the "Link" behavior. Now drag your text into the "Source Object" box. You will notice the background moves perfectly with the text now. You can offset the background's position by using the offset properties at the bottom of the link parameters. Or you can change the anchor point on your background, and that will have the same effect. When you publish your project to FCP, you should see the background element moving with the text. Hope that helps you! Feel free to reach out if you have any problems.
Help please. I created a poke filter to control rotation of an object. How do I block the X axis of the poke so I can only move it in Y axis ? Greets. Love your content
Hey Nuno! Look into using the "Clamp" parameter behavior. You can set the values to zero on the x axis position, and that should lock it into place. Hoping that helps!
Hey dude appreciate the video but, constructive criticism: this would have been a lot easier to follow if you had started with a project in final cut pro, then gone through some features in Motion to add to your video. You kind of just ran through naming all of the functions. I could go and read that if I wanted, what would be more helpful is to see when and where to use each of these functions. There's no frame of reference. You start drawing stars and I'm like I don't get it, is this an animation on a black background that he's going to put into a video as a cutaway, or is he going to overlay it, or use video in video, what is this for and when and how would I use it? Also, the 'um's every other sentence made the video difficult to listen to. Why don't you cut them out? Just detach audio on final cut pro, cut the audio of you saying um and delete it. Then maybe adjust the video footage so there's not too much dead air. Otherwise useful info, cheers again.
Appreciate all the constructive criticism! I agree. You are 100% correct with all your points. But, this was created when I was still very very new to creating tutorials on UA-cam and I had a ton to learn (still do!) If you watch my more recent tutorials, you will notice that pretty much all of these points have been addressed. It just took some time to figure out my pacing for UA-cam! Appreciate you watching and giving genuine constructive criticism!
Hi ! Thank you so much for this video that was.. much needed ! I always saw Motion as a black magic thing before ahaha ! I had a little questions, can we download or buy the plugins you have ?
Thanks so much for watching!! I haven’t really put any plugins up for sale from myself, though that’s coming soon. But I do have a few free plugins out you can get if you go to my plug-in playlist on UA-cam!
